i enjoyed fury

hell, i though Shia Labeouf was actually good in it. for that alone it's a good movie.

ending was kinda bullshit though. you know that ss officer would've dusted the gently caress out of him when he peeped him under the tank

Our grenade training in basic was basically us walking around the woods of Ft. Leonard Wood, signing off our own sheets so we got expert, and throwing the one grenade into a pit.

We also had a milk crate of them in the humvee when I was in Iraq. We never used them.

That and nurses don't want to do it. it's beneath them, and they're supposed to be telling the techs to do it.

Problem is that hospitals are still losing money, the demand for nurses is moving towards the old folks homes as the gray bomb looms.

Yeah there's several different cuts out there but the only one worth watching is The Final Cut, the only one on which Scott had complete artistic control.

Also watch the Blu-Ray if you can, they did a fantastic job in making it look gorgeous.

It's the same price for both of them at this point, so I may just go for the Fire HD just to have something else on me for when the kids are bored outta their minds in the car or whatever so I don't have to give em my phone for them to play angry birds and poo poo.

Alright, so Columbia has what they call "Orgo night" twice a year. Right before the organic chemistry final, the marching band goes into the library (where everyone and their brother studies) and plays marching music and tells jokes and does dumb skits or whatever. I haven't been to one yet, but supposedly they are somewhat funny but full of off-color jokes. Whatever. As part of the white racist cissexual heteronormative kyriarchy, this poo poo doesn't affect me.

I'd rather houseguests see a dildo on my coffee table than a $200 controller for fighting games, but on the other hand having a Street Fighter cabinet would be p. cool.

Man, you're talking to someone who has looked long and hard into getting a cabinet, and each time I'm about to bite the bullet it's just not something I can commit to. Too much money, too much work, too much space, and too much effort.

I'd kill to have a Neo-Geo MVS system or even an ugly-rear end Namco Noir setup but man people charge out the loving rear end for one with a working montor and JAMMA harness, or they do stupid loving things to old cabinets so they can jam in some crappy MAME box they made so they can play a lagged out version of Robotron on a 8 inch screen


Theres a dude out of Texas that sells really well-made Viewlix cabinets, all you have to do is drop in a 32" screen, some buttons and a controller PCB and you're good to go, its made for consoles and poo poo.


but yeah, you could go through all that or pay for a fightstick that just plugs into a console or PC and do it that way.
